“On October 10 West Yorkshire Police executed warrants at four addresses in relation to their enquiries, two in Halifax, one in Huddersfield and one in Sheffield.

“Officers have recovered just over £3 million worth of assets including cash and jewellery from the addresses.”

The force spokesman said four people, a woman aged 47, and three men aged 45, 25 and 23 were arrested on suspicion of money laundering offences. They were released from police custody pending further investigation.

An Examiner reader said: “Police were there on the 10th for quite a while. I thought it was a robbery, surely I wasn’t the only person to see them?”

The Post Office declined to comment in view of the ongoing police investigation. However, on Monday a Post Office spokesman said the branch had closed due to “operational reasons.”

Previously, postmaster Mohammed Khan issued a statement saying how much he appreciated the support of his customers.
